In Escape from Duckov, players control an Average Duck, featuring ordinary stats and one basic gun. The duck can upgrade gear, gather items, and collect over 50 weapons, alongside building a hideout. 

The developers published a mod guide for players to utilize, stating that they embrace mods because the player’s feedback and imaginative ideas have been vital to their development process. AI usage is not prohibited, but must be clearly labeled. More details are on the official blog post.
